Hi there! I've just returned after three years and am looking to build up my wardrobe with lots of pretty things. I did not play for long when I joined so my wardrobe is seriously lacking and I don't know where to start.

So my question is what are your wardrobe essentials? e.g. items that you use a lot/come in a tonne of colours/have great layering potential/are just beautiful.

All suggestions greatly appreciated!

The basic tights + flats are really good staples to have! They both come in a ton of colors:

The Subeautique has a new-ish makeup section that I reccommend you check out, there's a lot of cool stuff in there (but it does still take SubQ invites to buy anything)

Miscellaneous useful things that have lots of recolors:

As for a starting place, you might want to take a look through the event/special currency shops too if you haven't: Quest Shops L'amour Parlor Steamworks Menagerie Vesnali Shop New Year Shop

And there's a new land on the map, Shengui Guo, that has two shops that have wearables: Five Seven Five and Fine Fabrics

...phew, sorry for the miles-long post ^^ I skimmed through my wardrobe and honestly a lot of what stood out for having recolors + things comes from one of those shops :'D But welcome back! I hope you can find some nice things, and feel free to let me know if you have any questions while you get back into the swing of things ^^

Thank you so much! You're so sweet to give me links too! I completely missed half of those shops. And you just made me realise I can buy the special currency you need for some of those (derp). I've just been buying everything I like from user shops.

The SubQ makeup does look good. Thankfully 18yo me was apparently a hoarder and I have a bunch of invites. Time to splurge <3

And thanks for the welcome! I'm really enjoying being back. I think I would have failed my degree if I hadn't forgotten about this place.

You're welcome! ^_^ We're moving into event season pretty soon, so there should be plenty of new releases + also chances to earn those currencies when the events come around again c:

Oh that's good to know. I shall wait for that. Thanks again :)

You can never go wrong with a black skirt and a colourful top, or a bit of mystical charm from Spells Galore, or some ambient colour to make the whole scheme fit together, or a nice, subtle pair of tights or twenty bandannas in varying shades of brown. And I gotta have my freckles!

p cheap stuff thats nice imo (i didnt include the ones mentioned earlier by other lovely people huhu) ^ they all have recolours so check them out! c:

really expensive staples people seem to carry ;3;

also Darkrai linked you to a number of cool holiday/seasonal shops (who doesnt love the Steamworks Menagerie amrite) but she missed the Zombie Den which has really cheap nice stuff as well hee! you could look through it c:

yeah and uh. i suppose thats it! c:

I never thought to look in Spells Galore, those are some great items! And I never though lightbulbs would be wearable xD I need to start checking more items. Thank you so much!

Thank you! I picked up almost all of those! And I definitely needed makeup pointers :) (P.S. your HA is gorgeous)

aaa youre super sweet (and so is your HA)! c: thank you so much ehehe! xD i dont usually have serious faces on my HAs so i was wondering if i could ever pull this particular mouth off, but i guess it isnt so bad hee~ i hope to see all your pretty HAs in future! v

Aw, thanks. You definitely pull it off! It fits perfectly. I've ended up with half a dozen half finished HAs now that I have so many items I want to wear xD

Glad I could be of service 😄 I swear, almost everything in Spells Galore is wearable, and they have everything from backdrops to body mods to animal effects and auras for less than 500sp each, and always well-stocked ✨

Yeah, it's great! It's really helping with a huge gap in my wardrobe :)

I will just post items that are not particulary expensive and are rather pretty and easy to play with. Most of these come in several colours.

More expensive but basic looking:

Thank you so much! Picked up a bunch of those :)

You are welcomed
